How far does the tip of the minute hand of a clock move in 35 minutes if the hand is 9 inches long?

Assuming the 9 inches is from the pivot point to the tip of the minute hand:
In 1 hour = 60 minutes the tip of the minute hand sweeps out the circumference of a circle with radius 9 inches.
In 35 minutes, it sweeps out a fraction on 35 minutes/1 hour of this.
The circumference of a circle is given by circumference = 2 × π × radius
Therefore the tip of the minute hand moves:
length = 35/60 × 2 × π × 9 in
→ length = 21/2 π in = 10½ π in ≈ 33.0 in
